In Nigeria, including Edo State, the term “ZIP code” is not commonly used. Instead, the Nigerian Postal Service (NIPOST) uses postal codes to designate specific areas to sort and deliver mail.
The Edo State postal code is 300001 to 313111. It is a numerical code that helps the postal service sort and deliver mail quickly to your intended destination within Edo State. Each postal code corresponds to a specific LGA, district, or street within the state.
